R-101C Carbine

The R-101C is a fully automatic, compact assault weapon commonly used throughout the Frontier.

Pro Tip: StrongSide

When using the R-101C Carbine, I like to attach the Suppressor mod to hide myself on the minimap when firing the weapon. I also use the HCOG attachment because of its versatility in most situations and quick target acquisition. The HCOG also takes up minimal screen view in the HUD.

Iron Sights

Factory issue gunsights are cheap and reliable, but visibility through them can be somewhat limited.

Default Weapon Sight

HCOG

The Holographic Combat Optical Gunsight has an open sight picture, making it easier to acquire and track targets, particularly in the vertical. The gunsight is fixed at 1.85X magnification, and includes integrated ammunition readouts.

Holosight

The Holosight’s optics are fixed at a 2.1X zoom factor. The sight picture is designed to induce a tighter visual perception, making it effective both at range and in close quarters. The Holosight is equipped with an integrated ammunition readout.

The Expendables (III) Challenge: Kill 50 Grunts

AOG

The AOG, or Advanced Optical Gunsight, is fixed at 2.4X magnification, and includes an integrated “current magazine capacity” readout with a backup numerical display. The AOG is ideal for combat at extended range.

Field Notes

If you’re looking for the all-around weapon, this is it. The R-101C Carbine is the most versatile weapon in the game. It has great accuracy and range while its rate of fire is quite fast and deals a solid amount of damage to take down Pilots and minions.

Being an extremely versatile weapon, you can play aggressive or passive throughout the game. Its range enables you to pick off Pilots from a distance and its fully automatic feature allows you to fire away in those close-quarter battles. When engaging targets at long range, fire the weapon in short bursts to maintain accuracy.

With this weapon, you’re able to pick off most minions from a distance with quick headshots or a few bullets to the body. The magazine capacity allows you to pick off a group of minions and still have enough ammo left to drop a Pilot.

The sight attachments offer different magnifications. If you’re looking to sit back and defend on a open map, attach the AOG. At closer ranges attach the HCOG or Holosight. If you find yourself running out of ammo, attach the Extended Magazine to increase your magazine capacity. However adding the Suppressor allows you to be a stealthy ninja and stay hidden from the minimap when firing the weapon, but at a minor reduction in damage and range.
